of MeCN was added. The ampule was sealed and
thermostated at 50 C for 6 h. The solvent and the un-
reacted ester I were distilled off at reduced pressure.
The solid residue was purified from inorganic pro-
ducts by filtration through a short column filled with
silica gel, elution with 4:1 hexane ether. Obtained
filtrate was analyzed by GLC. Compound II, 59 mg,
and the ester III, 22 mg, were found.
triethylamine, and the ampule was sealed and thermo-
stated at 50 C for 6 h. Analysis of the reaction pro-
ducts was carried out according to the above-presented
procedure. Compound II, 22 mg, was found.
Reaction of Ph4SbCl with methyl 3-chloropropa-
noate. To a mixture of 0.233 g of Ph4SbCl and
3.6 mg of PdCl2 the freshly prepared solution of
0.052 ml of ClCH2CH2COOMe in 4 ml of NeCN was
added. Reaction mixture was degased, the ampule was
sealed, and kept for 6 h at 50 C. After that 55 mg
of diphenyl was found.
Reaction of Ph4SbCl with the ester I in the pre-
sence of another palladium compounds, in another
solvents, and also the reactions of organoantimony
compounds with another acidic residues were carried
out analogously.

Reaction of Ph3Sb with the ester (I) and
4 mol% of PdCl2 in the presence of the equimolar
amount of HCl. To a solution of 0.177 g of Ph3Sb in
2 ml of MeCN 0.25 ml of 2 M HCl solution in aceto-
nitrile was added. Resulting mixture was treated with
a solution of 3.6 mg of PdCl2 and 0.135 ml of com-
pound I in 1.75 ml of MeCN. The ampule was sealed
and heated at 50 C for 6 h. After that the ampule was
opened, the solvent was removed, and the solid re-
sidue was treated similarly to the above-described
procedure. Formation of 0.4 mg of the ester III was
established.
The work was carried out with the support of the
Federal Program Integration of Science and Higher
Education in Russia in 2002 2006 (state contract
no. Z4234/2) and Competing Center of Basic Natural
Sciences of the SPbGU (grant no. A04-2.11-526).

Reaction of Ph4SbCl with the ester (I) in the
presence of 4 mol% of PdCl2 with the addition of
aqueous HCl solution. To a mixture of 0.233 g of
Ph4SbCl and 3.6 mg of PdCl2 the freshly prepared
solution of 0.135 of the ester I in 4 ml of MeCN was
added. Resulting mixture was treated with 0.04 ml of
11.8 M HCl. The ampule was sealed and thermostated
at 50 C for 6 h. Analysis of the reaction products was
carried out according to the abovementioned proce-
dure. Compound II, 4.5 mg, and 3.5 mg of the ester
III were found.
